Need Translation of Nazi Poster

A fellow from Gunsnet posted this as a description of where the term "jack boot" came from. The green arrow points to the boot.

Can anyone translate it? I only picked up a couple words.

I see you browsing the forum, Klaus!

It is in DUTCH, not German. On the left seems a list of countries. On the right, it says something like "The answer: Grab a weapon".

Hmm, so is it pro or anti Nazi? Not sure anymore. Is it trying to warn people of the Nazi advance on the countries listed, or to encourage people to join the Nazis?

They are asking them to take up arms WITH Germany. The guy at the receiving end is the typical German rendition of the Jewish people.

Plus he has the Flag of England on his chest...anyone who sided with the Jews, also died! The Germans always portrayed everyone else as ugly, troll like people, while they were always strong and chiseled looking.

It would also appear that there are little "map like" cities around the storm troopers boots.......
